I guess this answers the age old question of “which came first, the hicken or the Egg” , it’s obviously the Egg in his case. I do think the entrance should be more open, rather than “Oops, how do we get in there?” Also, why does practically every hotel design have the bathroom right at the entrance to the room, you would never do that in a home, why do it in a hotel? There has to be another way to layout the plumbing and the room entry that doesn’t require having the bathroom be the first thing the guest sees.

Proportions are not nice from my point of wiev…Kaplicky did it much niceier!!!! http://www.future-systems.com/architecture/architecture_19.html

The architecture is rediculous looking: at first glance I thought it was some sort of stereo speaker thing, but looking closer saw that it was a building. I think that instead of using three gigantic fans, maybe use a bunch of smaller ones (unless the size is necessary for the size building). I also think the main entrance seems a little claustrophobic and seems almost an after-thought. Keep the concept, re-think the architecture.

Thu, 12 Mar 2009 17:23:53 +0000http://www.inhabitat.com/?p=20336#comment-120032Great concept. Love all the features. But if they could eliminate the huge fans on the side of the building, the giant cap on top of the building, and do something to fix the spacey appearance of the base it would be really beautiful. As of now it looks like something out of a space age comic book rather than a professional structure.

all the concepts are great, but the look of the building is in my opinion, atrocious.
